Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 444

Chapter 444 Passing Out for Real 

I looked at Leonard in a daze before I burst out laughing. Here I was, wondering why he had agreed to let me stay away from the camera without any hesitation. It tumed out he had full control when we were at the venue. 

“Good on you, Leonard.” My lips twitched. Then, I looked at the reporters. All of a sudden, he hugged me tighter and leaned close to my ear. He whispered, “Jasper Is still here.” 

“What?” I stared at him in disbelief. 

Leonard reached out and was about to touch my hair. He probably remembered it was a wig. So, he lowered his hand again. 

“The flight was delayed. It’ll be two more hours before it’s in the air. He’ll leave once the press conference is over. So, why don’t you work with me?” 

At that moment, it felt as if the blood in my body had frozen. I looked at him with a blank expression and fought back tears. I used to love Leonard, and he used to feel guilty toward me all the time. However, he had changed when all was said and done. 

Leonard became a terrifying man that I could no longer recognize. I had fallen for the trap he spring for me, 

and there was no escape. 

All of a sudden, my gaze rested on Emilia. Her eyes were laced with andousness, and there seemed to be some reluctance as well. I thought about how she had asked to pretend to pass out. The thing was, I didn’t have to pretend because I honestly couldn’t hold myself together anymore. 

I felt my body going limp. The next thing I knew, I was leaning on Leonard’s chest. He seemed to be startled and started calling me ceaselessly. There wasn’t any energy left in me, and I somehow knocked the stroller over. Then, Levon fell to the floor. 

Eventually, I thought I saw Jack rushing over to the stage. 

“Eva, Eval what did you do to her, Leonard! 

Leonard shoved Jack away. “She’s my wife. No one can lay a finger on her!” 

Both of them seemed to be engaged in a fierce argument, but Leonard was still holding onto me tightly. Gradually, it felt like someone seized control of my body because I couldn’t move an inch. However, Icould still hear voices. It was just that I couldn’t open my eyes. 

I heard Jack and Leonard locked in a fierce quarrel. There were also a lot of people calling out my 

y name. 

Meanwhile, Leonard did his role flawlessly in front of the reporters. His concerned voice bombarded my ears, but he never paused to call the ambulance. Naturally, he didn’t express a concern for Levon’s late either. 

I could feel Leonard holding my hand, and there seemed to be some trats as well. 

“You have to wake up, Eva Ley and I are waiting for you! I’ll find the best doctor and get you cured. Don’t leave me!”

Leonard said every melodramatic line under the sun, portraying himself as a man deeply in love with me. If he had been like this back in college, I might’ve b up with him tight there and then.
